Link wins special election, will return to Athens-Clarke Co Commission

Melissa Link will return to the Athens-Clarke County Commission. Link, who was redistricted out of a chance to run for reelection in District 3, won a special election in a redrawn District 2, defeating former Clarke County School Board member Kirrena Gallagher by an unofficial tally of 531 to 307 in voting that wrapped up Tuesday.

Link replaces former District 2 Commissioner Mariah Parker, who resigned last September.
